Bike-Hook vs. Hitch Racks: What Every Van Owner Should Know

Hitch Racks: Bikes often sway, rattle, or even make contact with each other. Theft is easier with open frames exposed.  There have been many stories of welds breaking from heavy loads bouncing down the road.  A large bicycle hitch system failure can create a driving accident.  These should be checked frequently for cracks and bends.  Bike-Hook: Holds bikes upright and close to the van. Once the rear doors are shut, the mounts are locked in place—can’t be removed until reopened.  A stainless steel safety cable is added for extra protection.
